The upcoming Disney+ Obi-Wan Kenobiis just around the corner and fans are getting teaser bombs from the series’ director. This series will see the return of Ewan McGregor to the role of the titular Jedi.
The new Star Wars Series was initially meant as a feature film but with the history of Star Wars’ standalone, it was executed as miniseries. With its announcement, fans are eager to know more about the series and its storyline.
Obi-Wan Kenobi Director Teases the Miniseries
During the press conference forObi-Wan Kenobi,Director Deborah Chow talked about her approach to the newStar WarsDisney+ series calling it“a different tone”from darker comic-book movies like Logan and Joker. She cites this project as an opportunity to do this kind of character-focused story in the Star Wars franchise.
Chow said,“I think I was most excited about getting the opportunity to do a character-driven story. You know, in a similar way—you know it’s a different tone, but something like Joker [and] Logan, where you take one character out of a big franchise, and then you have the time and you go a lot deeper with the characters. So that to me seemed exciting to do in Star Wars.”
